Biden could offer immunity to anyone involved, while they did nothing wrong but adhire to the law which is foreign concept to Trump and his fascists followers, Biden might have to step in and protect everyone involved, though i dont know how well that would work with what looks like a very corrupt administration about to ruin this country, the rule of law will easily be destroyed once they take power.

The only people that think tariffs are a good thing are people who voted for Trump because they cant think for themselves and were told they are a good thing, anyone with half a brain knows tariffs never work and only hurt the average person, but i am sure republicans will spin this coming disaster and blame democrats.
Mexico basically called Trumps threat, and made excellent points about who the real problem which is the US, first, the constant illegial immigrant scare tactic is getting old, every time i turn around Trump claims there is a caravan on the way that never shows up, blames Mexico and Canada for drugs when the majority come from asia through our ports, yet we never embrace the fact that if there wasnt a demand from drugs in this country there wouldnt be an endless, massively profitable supply and Mexicos presidents point about every illegal weapon in her country comes from the US is valid, in reality the US is the problem, not Mexico and Canada, but people here are to stupid and arrogrant to accept responsiblity
